A vibrant and refreshing non-alcoholic drink made with orange juice and grenadine. The Sunrise Mocktail features a striking layered appearance and is perfect for brunch, celebrations, or any alcohol-free occasion.

Ingredients

  • 8 oz (1 cup) pulp-free orange juice
  • 1 oz (2 tablespoons) grenadine syrup
  • 1 orange slice (optional garnish)
  • 1 maraschino cherry (optional garnish)
  • Ice cubes

Instructions

  1. Fill a highball glass to the top with ice cubes.
  2. Pour 8 oz pulp-free orange juice over the ice, leaving about half an inch of space at the top.
  3. Gently pour 1 oz grenadine syrup down the side of the glass or over the back of a spoon to create a sunrise effect.
  4. Garnish with an orange slice and a maraschino cherry, if desired.
  5. Serve immediately without stirring.

Notes

  • Use chilled juice and grenadine to preserve the gradient effect longer.
  • Substitute grenadine with pomegranate juice concentrate mixed with sugar for a less sweet option.
  • Try pineapple or mango juice instead of orange juice for a tropical variation.
  • For a fizzy version, top with soda water or sparkling white grape juice.
